film

I went to see an irish film last night with friends. Before that we had dinner in a small restaurant. We had bo zai fan with oyster cake but no beers. Tung choi is now available. It is served with peppers and fermented bean curds. Then we had a little walk in Temple street. Nearly bought some Huang Mei Diao but abandoned the thought as it is so old-fashioned. I woundn't have the patience to finish it. Then we come across a Pa Tei Panda which is very cute but again I was successful in refraining myself from buying. Haha.... I can try to draw one now.

regeneration

A ~60 year woman come in. Her hand was amputed at her 30's. No operation was done at that time. To my amazement, the amputated end showed some signs of regeneration. There is tiny bit of finger nail on each finger tip that was cut down to the proximal phalanx at least! So the cells at the broken end is able to transform due to the injury. So is it possible there is some chemical in the body when applied to the amputated part the body, the part just regenerate like the broken end of tree and a new branch can be formed? Sounds like science ficiton.

St. Francis' Prayer

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace;

where there is hatred,
let me sow love;

where there is injury,
pardon;

where there is doubt,
faith;

where there is darkness,
light,

and where there is sadness,
joy.

Grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;

to be understood as to understand;

to be loved as to love;

for it is in giving that we receive;

it is in pardoning that we are pardoned

and

in dying that we are born to eternal life.

Amen

witnessed betrayal

She was betrayed by her husband,
sitting there in the side room,
her guiltiful husband beside her,
her angry eyes full of fire whenever she has to face him,
her eyebrows frown together,
tears run down,
I can see the pain torturing her whenever the event was mentioned,
Silence is my only offering.
Dear lord, please let your deliverance flow.

Give thanks

I have a delicious meal cooked by my Aunt Ying who come all the way from Australia. She shall stay till Feb. She's a nice and warm person who likes cooking a lot. This time we have shrimps and Vietnemese Pork. I now know the receipe of Vietnemese Pork. Hope to try it sometimes. I went to my Aunt Lin's home to have dinner. As usual, I took the wrong road and went to Cheung Sha Wan Street instead. However, I got some beautiful dresses there at very low price! Finally, I arrive there at 7pm. We chat along and watch TV. My father was also there. Aunt Lin told me the story so I save a lot time too. She's a good narrator, answering my questions patiently with appropriate repetitions.

Receipe of Vietnemese Pork

1. chop the pork with back of knife
2. soak it with sauce: sugar,salt, yulu and pepper
3. fridge overnight
4. fried the pork
5. serve it with lettuce

Dear Good Lord, Thank you for giving me a break !

faithfulness

「你們所遇見的試探,無非是人所能受的。   神是信實的,必不叫你們受試探過於所能受的。   在受試探的時候,總要給你們開一條出路,叫你們能忍受得住。」   (哥林多前書 10:13)


Beatles said: "life is a big illusion".

Jesus said: " I am the life, the truth and the road"

Who shall you follow?

rose in my heart

a theme from a tv story in mainland - tear trace (modified)

In my soul's deepest part,
opens a rose,
I use the spring of life,
to water and culture it .
O,rose, the rose of my heart,
Only you last longer than heaven and earth,
stay with me for ever and ever,
stay with me for ever and ever.

In my times of sorrow,
you give me consolation,
In my times of joy,
you light up my life with grace.
O, rose, the rose of my heart,
only you last longer than heaven and earth,
stay with me for ever and ever,
stay with me for ever and ever.
